The MLB Pitcher Cheat Sheet is based entirely on situation and opponent. Pitchers shown as “Targets” or “Avoids” on the Pitcher Cheat Sheet are found by combining their opponents On Base + Slugging Percentage (OPS) in 4 splits; home, road, vs. LHP and vs. RHP. If a team is facing a left-handed pitcher and playing at home, then we combine their OPS averages for those two splits and churn out a ranking.

Pitchers facing the top-5 teams in combined OPS at their given split are marked as players to “AVOID” on a given day. Pitchers facing a bottom-5 team in combined OPS at their given split are marked as players to “TARGET” on a given day.

Starting Pitchers are based on PROBABLE starters and have not been confirmed. Please check the RotoGrinders MLB Lineups Page to ensure the starter is correct for each day

LEGEND:
There are four ‘scenarios’ – Home vs. Left Handed Pitcher, Home vs. Right Handed Pitcher, Away vs. Left Handed Pitcher, Away vs. Right Handed Pitcher
Opp-BA Split – Opponent Team Batting Average Split for Given Scenario
Opp-OBP Split – Opponent On Base Percentage Split
Opp-SLG Split – Opponent Slugging Percentage Split
Opp-OPS Split – Opponent On Base + Slugging Split
Opp OPS Rank – Opponent ranking of all teams in the given split scenario. 1 is the best, 30 is the worst.

NOTE: There can be multiple teams facing a #1 ranked offense (or any ranking) on a given day because the OPS-ranking is based on the four matchup scenarios listed above
